>>82073002

Fuck, it's real.
It's very sad that the last movie he directed is Ricki and the Flash.

>>82073002
Didn't he turn SJW or am I thinking about someone else?

despite what these narcs are saying, silence of the lambs is fucking incredible

STICKY NOW

Seriously though he was a great director, PTA said he's one of his favorites

His best film was Stop Making Sense
Prove me wrong

>>82073596
concert films are not films.

>>82073596
All of his movies were pretty good until Silence of the Lambs made him respectable. Caged Heat, Melvin and Howard, Something Wild, Married to the Mob. F

>>82073596
Objectively true.

>>82073002
SotL is one of my favorite movies but I think it's mostly the material and acting that does it for me and not so much his directing.

RIP in peace Jonathan Demme

>>82073304
The first three listed movies were great. Why wasn't he able to make other great movies? Did he choose to make all the other garbage or was he blacklisted for some reason?

Fuck. RIP to a legit master filmmaker.

Watch the staging and editing here and learn something. Take Bergman's Persona and amp it up to a million, every choice made and every frame has meaning:

Not every director is a Spielberg/Scorsese/Nolan where they put out consistant succesful material for decades.

Sometimes you come in, make your mark, sink everything you know into a few films, then fade back into obscurity on purpose to relax on your pile of money.

>>82073002

Now Demme brothers are in both dead

Feels bad man, F, no sticky as usual, Rip in peace

Wow. SoTL is a legit masterpiece, Rachel getting Married was pretty great too. PTA cites him as his biggest influence, it's easy to see why:
https://vimeo.com/126757480

>>82073002
Well that's a damn shame. At least he lived a full life. Silence of the Lambs and Philadelphia are both amazing films.

>>82073002

His earlier stuff is pretty underrated.

I thought Anthony Hopkins directed Silence of the Lambs

>>82073002
Who?

>>82073116
>Did he choose to make garbage?

He didn't direct Hannibal, that was Ridley Scott

ricki and the flash is underrated

The fact that it's been over an hour and yet this hasn't been stickied tells you how lame this board is.
Only a pleb would think of Demme as "just the director of SotL"

>>82074907
Streep was a horrible casting choice, but otherwise I agree. I'm not saying she's a bad actress, but she's an awful fit for that role.

>>82073116
I thought I hadn't seen any of his films but now I know he did Manchurian Candidate
It was pretty good

See you when the fire rises big guy

He did. Near the end here and he became a SJW.
But that doesn't stop his work from being great.

Also funny too since he did Caged Heat.

Even worse.

>>82075731
no one cared about him until he wore the big suit

Silence of the Lambs was normie garbage anyway. That's like being famous for directing Harry Potter. Manhunter was the superior film

>people complaining about no sticky

It's real simple.

1. He's not important enough. Stickies are reserved for those who truly deserve it, like Florence Henderson.
2. A sticky means one less place on the front page for all the Rick and Morty, Red Lantern Colbert, and Bill Nye threads, which is of course unacceptable.

Hope that's cleared up.

>>82089833
>Stickies are reserved for those who truly deserve it, like Florence Henderson.
That sticky was hilarious, no one cared about her and as a result her sticky was nothing but shitposting. I don't know what the mods were thinking, The Brady Bunch is a shitty pop culture relic that's only liked by baby boomers.

>>82089833
>A sticky means one less place on the front page for all the Rick and Morty, Red Lantern Colbert, and Bill Nye threads, which is of course unacceptable.

No it doesn't, faggot. This thread would still be up regardless.

>>82089974

Not good enough. No attention must be drawn away from those vitally important threads that have clearly contributed so much more to the medium of television and film than Jonathan Demme.
